Former RG Kar Medical College principal, Sandip Ghosh, gave misleading responses during a polygraph and layered voice analysis, according to CBI officials. The CBI is investigating the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor at the hospital on August 9.
CBI claims thatGhosh was informed about the incident at 9:58 AM but delayed reporting it to the police. When he did file a report, it was vague.
CBI officials also accused Ghosh of introducing a suicide theory. "He did not try to get an FIR lodged immediately. Rather, a new theory of suicide was introduced, which is not possible as per external injury visible on the body of the victim that was undressed at the lower part," CBI told the news agency.
Additionally, the CBI said Ghosh contacted Tala Police Station’s Officer In Charge (OC), Abhijit Mondal, at 10:03 AM on August 9. However, Mondal did not arrive at the crime scene immediately. By 11:30 AM, a case of unnatural death was registered.

Mondal, who has also been arrested, was informed of the incident but failed to act swiftly. The general diary entry (GDE) 542 stated that the victim, a postgraduate trainee at RG Kar Medical College, was found "unconscious" in the chest medicine seminar room. However, a doctor had already examined her and declared her dead.
The CBI claims the GDE was falsified in coordination with hospital authorities and others, deliberately providing inaccurate information. The agency further alleged that Mondal’s delay in filing the FIR and securing the crime scene resulted in the loss of crucial evidence.
Mondal is also accused of protecting Sanjay Roy, the suspect who had unauthorised access to the crime scene. The victim was found raped and murdered in the seminar hall, where she had gone to rest. A doctor discovered her body.
Sanjay Roy, a police volunteer, was arrested the following day after CCTV footage showed him entering the room at 4:03 am. The Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) in New Delhi later found Roy’s account to be "deceptive on certain important issues," PTI reported.
